Today's hunt!

Today's hunting adventure was quite successful! It never ceases to amaze me what our local schools throw out! I am so ashamed of their wastefulness, especially where my tax dollars are concerned...
Here's what I found:

 Christmas stuff, flags (brand new!)

 A 2-sided stand with white board and magnet board (perfect condition!)

Unused spiral notebooks, more Christmas stuff, under mount lights, several totes and more!
My ebay biz is growing, with most of my inventory coming from my dumpster diving and hunting. Tomorrow I will finally start hitting the yard sales to see what treasures I might find with the focus on resale. The Lord is really leading me down this path to help me to help my family. Disneyland, here we come!!

Saver's

I took my sis in law shopping with me today. This was her first hunting experience at Saver's. I was disappointed to find that they didn't have their usual .99 Monday deal... Instead, everything was half price. We still did really well, but it was frustrating.
I was focused solely on finding items for resale as I have been doing a lot with ebay lately. I found some great stuff and am excited to see how it does.
I am building up a large inventory of items to sell and it is starting to take over... Spilling out of my office.. Tomorrow I will have to organize the attic so I have a place to store all of this stuff until it sells..
Making good money so far with this, as long as I can continue finding junk for FREE that people want to pay for! :)

Walmart last week

I made a quick stop at Walmart last Saturday to use some coupons that were expiring. The place was crazy busy, but as I was gathering candy bars from an unopen register, my favorite cashier, Michelle, opened up that register! How lovely is that?!
Here's what I got:

I ad-matched the Hershey's bars with Macey's for .44 each. I used the B1 Hershey's bar, get 1 FREE Hershey's Air Delights. Total 32 bars @ .22 each!
For the Slim Fast, I had to find the -$1.50/1 coupons on ebay since we didn't get them out here. The snack bars were on clearance for $2.50, which made them just $1 each with my coupon!
The meal bars were a great deal too. I love stock up opportunities!

selling formula coupons

Here's a great new money making idea! You know those Infant formula coupons you get in the mail for $3-$10?
They sell like hot potatoes on ebay! I've been selling them like crazy this week and now have a handle on what people will pay for them. I just sold (2) -$5/1 coupons together for $7.50 plus shipping!! Free money, friends!

Shopko flowers

It's that time! Shopko has begun marking down their plants! There are still tons of great, healthy options. They will get picked over in the next weeks though, so get in soon if you can.

I grabbed a couple of mini rose bushes at half price and a few perennial starters, plus a bunch of marked down summer annuals to fill in where my early spring bloomers were.
